Özet:

 The home township phenomenon, which is the output of a process that starts with internal migration movements and continues with informal relations, has reflections on administrative structures as well as political, social, economic, demographic, cultural, and psychological effects. The purpose of this examination is to explain the interaction between the phenomenon of home township and personnel recruitment in local governments. With this scope of the central problem, the examination is to how the perceptions of municipal bureaucrats, local political elites, and home township association managers between personnel recruitment in municipalities and the phenomenon of the home township are grasped. The examination was conducted via in-depth interviews with 27 diverse ones in the district municipalities of Beşiktaş, Üsküdar, Ataşehir, Sancaktepe, Büyükçekmece and Esenler, which are affiliated to the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. As a result of the paper, it has been determined that there is an administrative main dimension related to the phenomenon of home township and six sub-dimensions under it. Additionally, in addition, the main findings and determinations of the study are that the principle of merit is rendered dysfunctional by the intense pressure of fellow citizens and political pressure in the recruitment of personnel to municipalities; that there is a problem of representative bureaucracy, and that this leads to a kind of municipal oligarchy.

 İç göç hareketleriyle birlikte başlayıp akabinde informel ilişkilerle devam eden bir sürecin çıktısı olan hemşehrilik olgusunun siyasal, sosyal, ekonomik, demografik, kültürel ve psikolojik etkilerinin yanı sıra yönetsel yapılar üzerinde de yansımaları bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı ise yerel yönetimlerde personel alımları ve hemşehrilik olgusu arasındaki etkileşimi izah etmektir. Bu kapsamda belediye bürokratları, yerel siyasi seçkinler ve hemşehri derneği yöneticilerinin belediyelerde personel alımı ve hemşehrilik olgusu arasındaki algılarının nasıl kavrandığı çalışmanın merkezi problemini teşkil etmektedir. Çalışma İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediyesine bağlı olan Beşiktaş, Üsküdar, Ataşehir, Sancaktepe, Büyükçekmece ve Esenler ilçe belediyelerindeki 27 farklı kişiyle derinlemesine mülakat yoluyla yürütülmüştür. Çalışma sonucunda hemşehrilik olgusunun yönetsel ana boyutunun olduğu ve bunun altında altı alt boyut tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca araştırmada, belediyelere personel alımlarında hemşehri ve siyasi baskılarının yoğun olmasının liyakat ilkesini işlevsiz bıraktığı; temsili bürokrasi sorununun var olduğu ve bunun da bir tür belediye oligarşisini doğurduğu çalışma sonucunda elde edilen başlıca bulgu ve tespitler arasında yer almaktadır.
